[this is written very slowly and carefully. There may be a couple of wet spots, but they're meticulously blotted up and dried before the writing picks up again.]

Helios is gone.

I know he's gone because he went over into his room to get something and I followed him to ask him something and he wasn't there anymore.

[there's a few drips of ink, and then they stop. The writing isn't smeared, but blotted as though the journal was shut very quickly.]

[Hi, Cara. Stoneface won't write anything on the journal, but on her next shift, she'll find a mug of hot cocoa and a small thermos of soup waiting for her. Hot cocoa solves everything, shut up.]

[Aw thanks Stoneface. Hot cocoa is a very nice thing. She'll be on time so it's not going to get cold.]
